Bright and early at 7am Will pulled into Friendly's on his bike. His boss Chris told him that
he was going to be getting some new tables and chairs in and needed help getting them
moved into the restaurant. Will entered to find his boss on the phone with a very disgusted
look on his face.
"Yes...no no, that's fine, alright then, bye."
"Chris what happened?" Will asked curiously. Chris hung up with phone and balled up his fist
lightly bringing it down onto the counter.
"That was Chairmen's Furniture, our order was idiotically delivered to the Friendly's across
town, so while they're being refurnished with new tables and chairs we are stuck waiting
another week before they can get our order out to us."
"Awww man, i'm sorry" Will said scracthing his chest over his brick red shirt.
"Not your fault, now go on and get back to the dorm...you don't come in until this afertnoon
and you look like you need some more sleep after the double you pulled last night." his boss
finished reminded Will of that heavy sleepy feeling invading his eyes.
"Whatever you say boss, your wish is my command," he joked in a decent fake british tone.
He smiled lightly at Chris and proceeded out and back to his dorm on his bike. **Maybe Scout
will be up, i think i'll stop and get some coffee for us* he thought. As he rode he spotted
"Quick Stop" gas station. He stopped and leaned his bike against one of the pumps and went in.
The sound of Nick Drake's "Pink Moon" lightly fluttered through the speakers as he entered.
His scent picked up the delicious smell of fresh vanilla coffee beans as he made his way over
to the machine and poured some into two cups, sealing them with lids.
"Will?" At his name he turned around to find Jake.
"Hey what brings out of the dorms so early," she asked smiling.
"My boss, we had some new tables and chairs to move into Friendly's but unfortunately our
order got mixed up with someone elses."
"Oh, you sure you don't wanna changed that unfortunately to fortunately," she said giving
him a sly glance.
"Actually i think i just might, i am beat," he yawned as he reached for his wallet to pay
for the coffee. It wasn't there.
"Will something wrong?"
"No its fine.." his voice trailed as he dug into his other pocket to see if he had misplaced
it there. "Great another fine detail to add to this morning," he mumbled.
"What is it?," Jake asked.
"My wallet, i think i left it at the dorm earlier," he said rubbing his freckled nose.
"Ahh not a prob, these are on me," she smiled pulling her bearly pink wallet from her
tight fitted jeans.
"Jake you don't have/"
"I insist, just tell Scout that these were compliments of Ms Jakequline Pratt."
"Will do, thanks Jake," he grinned grabbing some napkins and heading out. He placed the coffees
into the basket attached to his handlebars, got on and was on his way. He thought curiously
about where his wallet might be and decided to try retracing his steps from the night before
in his head. **Ok, I left work, rode back to the dorms...wait a second** Will was reminded
of a slight detail from the night before that had absolutely nothing to do with his wallet.
He remembered entering his dorm room, and seeing a little more then Scout himself sleeping
in Scout's bed. He knew who it was but decided not to give himself a headache at this early
hour trying to figure out how to bring it up to Scout later on. Instead he swirled his bike
around and headed for home, he knew his father had gone off to work so he'd only be left to
see his mom...she would appreciate him stopping by, and the coffee.
The morning sun crept through the dorm's small window and shined directly onto Scout's face,
complimenting his profile nicely. He rolled over and wrapped his arms around what he believed
to be a bundle of blankets, but in a forgetful laspe of memory he realized that...blankets
don't move.
